Will probably take the X1/9 as the coupe will not be ready.

See you there.

Also intend to attend as I've heard great things about it and like John, it's not too far away. If the weather is sunny I might be in the Spider but hope to be in the Coupe.

Weather forecast is ‘OK’ so will be there. Coming in the coupe via Petersfield. Any suggestions on a location for convoy or a time to rendezvous? Otherwise we’ll be there about 9:30.

Had a GREAT morning at the Departure Lounge today, met and chatted with a lot of people, coupe owners, club members old and new, spouses and complete strangers with very interesting stories about their italian car passions.

Highlights for me were chats about upcoming social events, new membership requests, feedback on the 16-20 newsletter and seeing 9 Coupes, the most of any single model I could see at the meet.

Thank you all

Here are some pics that I got including some VERY disrespectful Maserati admirers looking like they are dissing the Wine Red Coupe smile

Same, looks really smart. That’s coming from someone who was there and didn’t spot it!

Really enjoyed the morning- meeting new people and cars with friendly vibe and a great breakfast ( eventually!).
Warren I’ll be texting you later regarding the car.
